This is a new provision. Therefore, today, there is no legal prohibition under planning law to prevent somebody else from challenging the eligibility. The Minister of State is inserting it. I am not arguing against it. However, I cannot form a view of it until I know why you are doing it. Has there been, for example, legal case history of other parties not included in these four categories going to court and challenging the eligibility of a planning permission, and is this provision trying to prevent that from happening?
